Contact corrosion
Contact corrosion
Contact corrosion can occur if unsuitable fasteners (bolts, nuts, washers etc.) are used on the vehicle.
For this reason, only fasteners with a special surface coating are fitted.
In addition, all rubber and plastic parts and all adhesives are made of non-conductive materials.
Should you have any doubts whether certain parts can be re-used, use new parts → Electronic parts catalogue.
Observe the following:
t  We recommend using genuine replacement parts only, as these have been checked and are compatible with aluminium.
t  We recommend using Audi Genuine Accessories.
t  Damage caused by contact corrosion is not covered by the warranty.
